The New STAR TREK Novel: Gemini

The New STAR TREK Novel written by Mike W. Barr is a Captain James T. Kirk book solving a world government watershed event that poses intrigue and mystery.Captain James T. Kirk and the crew of the Starship Enterprise are sent to the planet Nador to oversee the planet's entery into the Federation of Planets... one of the rules is that the planet must have a unified government. Nador has achieved a tenuous form of unified government by the Siamese twins Their Serene Highnesses princes Abon and Delor. Named after the two primary tribes on Nador who hold the power of the planet.Captain James T. Kirk has suspecions as to the stability of the government when a shadowy group of fanatics starts to break down the stability and wreaking havoc on the government of the planet. The book is written as a mystery filled with intrigue as Kirk must overcome the squabbling factors and the kidnapping of his nephew Peter the sone of Kirk's late brother Sam.As you read on in the book, a fast engaging read, you find Kirk and crew to be more and more suspicious of the planets population wanting entry into the Federation. There are undertones as the mystery begins to unfold. Multiple attacks on the Princes leads to McCoy to seperate the conjoined twins in order to save their lives. I must say that the conclusion does have a twist as Peter gets further involved and there is a horrible secret that become revealed. Now can Kirk overcome this? I can't reveal the conclusion, but I can say that you'll be surprised as to the ending.Garth of Izar written by Pamela Sargent and George Zebrowski is the next adventure in THE NEW STAR TREK; Surak's Soul by J.M. Dillard is the next installment in STAR TREK Enterprise series; and STAR TREK: TNG has The Genesis Wave book three on sale now by John Vornholt. "Live long and Prosper" I'll review these book soon.
